projectile VS .emacs.d

Could you explain more about this setup? I'm not familiar with "projectile". Is this https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile the same thing you're referring to?

Sounds interesting. What I've done recently is open my vim in the folder that contains all the organization's repos (the ones I've cloned) and just run ripgrep inside vim to find examples or references to whatever I've seeking. Seems performant enough even without doing anything except letting ripgrep ignore git-ignored stuff (default behavior of ripgrep).

Sure. It sounds like it's working well enough. Here's a Github issue that may be of interest to you. Apparently you can get this behavior if there's a project marker file at a higher level.

With projectile you can define custom "run", "compile", "test" commands per project. Also there are pre-defined commands for many known project types.

Thanks for your detailed explanation, but no that is no that is not the question. This is projectile: https://github.com/bbatsov/projectile

I am currently trying with perspective rather than persp-mode, as it segregates the buffer list as I like (#1 above). I've got projectile with persp-projectile, and that seems to give me what I need for project navigation (#2 probably, still not 100%). I get some help in my mode line for project focus (#3, partially).

The second one is a little bit more complicated. For a number of packages I kind of abuse use-package/straight to separate out setup of different files/modes contained within the same package into their own use-package statement. Good example of this is my setup for helm. ) For example, after the normal (use-package helm …) statement, I have the below which configures helm-files related stuff, which comes from helm-for-files.el within the helm package:

siren-tab-bar.el

If anyone is curious of the hacky solution I used to have in my config, here is the comment where I initially replaced it with an earlier version of yank-indent.

I’d like to throw my personal vanilla config into the hat as a point of reference/starting point/inspiration: https://github.com/jimeh/.emacs.d

My config uses/has use-package, straight.el, lsp, company, magit, tree-sitter, doom-themes, doom-modeline, vertico, marginalia, consult, treemacs, undo-fu, GitHub Copilot, projectile, vterm, smartparens, yasnippet, diff-hl, and more.

I did a similar thing with yaml-mode highlight queries in my config before the highlights were merged in. You can see the relevant commit in my config here: https://github.com/jimeh/.emacs.d/commit/ebbdab36fb2a3d635d591cc3179b8f4ed9a476d0

I'm two months in (without any programming experience) and I've gone through various re-writes (from a literate .org init to a modular setup akin to Emacs Prelude or Siren configurations. (See: https://github.com/jimeh/.emacs.d)
